lol ur joking right? well, if u dont mind being a pirate, u can download them off of torrent sites. Since ms new product activation, u cant just borrow it off of ur friend anymore, like i did. Plus if u download it off of a site that offers it for free, chances are the softwares loaded with viruses and trojans, and ur just setting urself up for a crash there buddy.

You can't legally download MS Office, including Excel.

However, you CAN download OpenOffice.Org which has components that are very similar and can use files created by MS Office and also create files that MS Office users can open.

Microsoft's Office package is not free and any illegal copy will be soon caught with new security measures instituted.

You could try open office, which is comparable to MS office.

Open Office is a free Offfice Suite which has proven to be an alternatvie to Microsoft Office except for one thing that I mentioned, it's FREE. There are many other sites dedicated to Open Office and even those that offer Open Office Tutorials.

It also includes the ability to export Portable Document Format (PDF) files with no additional software, and can also function as a WYSIWYG editor for creating and editing web pages. One important difference between Writer and Microsoft Word is that in Writer, many functions and number formats from Calc (below) are available in Writer's tables. Another difference is that in Writer, automatic save is off by default.
Calc — a spreadsheet similar to Microsoft Excel with a roughly equivalent range of features. Calc provides a number of features not present in Excel, including a system which automatically defines series for graphing, based on the layout of the user's data. Calc is also capable of writing spreadsheets directly as a PDF file.
Impress — a presentation program similar to Microsoft PowerPoint. It can export presentations to Adobe Flash (SWF) files allowing them to be played on any computer with the Flash player installed. It also includes the ability to create PDF files. Impress suffers from a lack of ready-made presentation designs. However, templates are readily available on the Internet.[6]
Base — a database program similar to Microsoft Access. Base allows the creation and manipulation of databases, and the building of forms and reports to provide easy access to data for end-users. As with Access, Base is able to work as a front-end to a number of different database systems, including Access databases (JET), ODBC data sources and

Legally, nowhere.
Try this.

Go to www.openoffice.org.

This suite is FREE, and it is very similar, plus it will work with MS Office file types.
